I Fell In Love With You One Night In September

you looked at me and smiled
then you said something
made me blush and tongue tied
I lost my mind that day
crazy in love they say
when a fling becomes a thing
becomes more than just a wild ride
it is a graceful ballet
a sultry Jazz medley
when our two worlds collide
the beat will go on forever,
just sing.

Sander

Ok, so it may have happened in October – the actual falling in love part, but we met in-world for the first time a year ago today, on September 27. What a wonderful year it’s been, M. You are amazing. Thank you for being you and thank you for loving me the way you do. ❤ Happy Anniversary, my love. The first of many.

Whatever Lola Wants

Jess Poses Couple 10

I’ve been in the mood for jazz, the slow sultry kind, ever since Mahogany started performing in Second Life. Whatever Lola Wants is one of my favourite songs that she sings, along with Black Coffee, Fever, and she does an amazing Why Don’t You Do Right *sighs*, and the list goes on.

On Friday Mahogany is not only doing her regular show at Gypsy’s Jazz & Blues Club, she’s doing a one time only event at Lust Ultra Lounge. It’s going to be something special and I can hardly wait! This is where I would link to Mahogany’s live performances schedule but that page is still under construction. You can however send me or Mahogany an IM in-world if you’re interested in knowing more about her singing!

Rhythm

…So you see our very existence is a rhythm, of waking and sleeping, eating and moving, and that’s all we’re doing. Just consider what we do everyday. What’s it all about? Does it really mean anything? Does it go anywhere? It’s just we keep wanting to do this kind of a ‘hoop-dee-da’. So you can get a certain vision of life, where everything is seen to be a complex pattern of rhythm.

The High Life

More Smart Casual than Casual; the #16 ARCBACK Casual set which is available now at The Men’s Department gives you a multitude of options for looking smart every day. Shirt tucked or not tucked, tie or no tie, suspenders or no suspenders. Got a date? Then tuck that shirt and put on a tie, trust me, you don’t have to wear a suit but dressing smart is a very, very good idea.

My One and Only Love – Strike a Pose 2019

The very thought of you makes my heart sing
Like an April breeze on the wings of spring
And you appear in all your splendor
My one and only love

Guy Wood/Robert Mellin – “My One and Only Love”
Pose by Jess Poses

Are you someone’s one and only love? Ok. Good. Is that person your one and only? Do you ever stop to think how lucky you are to have that very special connection with that person? It seems a rare thing, someone’s one and only. At least in Second Life where the freedom to do almost whatever you want make people do just that. If someone gives themselves to you, completely and wholeheartedly; treasure it. And if you give back what you get you might discover the meaning of true love. If you can’t do that, then the least you can do is be honest and upfront about it. It makes you a better person and gives the other person a chance to choose if what you have to offer them is enough. Scared it’s not? Well that seems right to me.
